The Lady ’Stangs jumped out to a strong start and built a five-run lead, highlighted by big hits from Ava Freppon and Kayleigh Stadelmann, but couldn’t hold off Toledo Central Catholic in a 9-6 loss on Wednesday.
After scoring early in the first and adding four more in the third, the Lady ’Stangs saw Toledo Central Catholic rally to tie the game in the fifth before taking the lead for good with a three-run seventh.
The Lady ’Stangs totaled 10 hits, with Leah Robinson and Sophie Schultz each collecting two, while Stadelmann drove in two runs. Natalee Jolly went the distance in the circle, allowing nine runs (six earned) over 5⅔ innings.
Despite drawing six walks and turning two double plays, the Lady ’Stangs were out-hit 13-10 as Toledo Central Catholic’s lineup delivered timely hits late to secure the comeback win.
WEDNESDAY 4/8
BBHS: 10
Notre Dame-Cathedral Latin (OH): 9
Rachel Shewmaker put on a show, hitting for the cycle to lead the Lady ‘Stangs to a wild 10-9 win over Notre Dame-Cathedral Latin. She blasted an inside-the-park home run in the first, then added a triple, double, and single to complete the rare feat.
The Lady ‘Stangs came out hot, scoring three in the first, and racked up 16 hits in a back-and-forth offensive battle. They regained control in the third with RBI hits from Shewmaker, Leah Robinson, and Avery Wietholter.
Multiple players contributed at the plate, with Ava Freppon, Robinson, Wietholter, and Sophie Schultz all recording multi-hit games. Defensively, the Lady ‘Stangs were flawless, turning a double play and committing no errors.

Madisonville-North Hopkins set the tone early, plating two runs in the first and adding another in the second. Despite a solid effort in the circle from Anna Bezold, who went the distance allowing four runs on eight hits, the Lady ‘Stangs couldn’t crack a dominant opposing pitcher who struck out 14.

BASEBALL
Mustangs Shocked, Rocked 12-2 By Mason County, 8 Unearned Runs The Culprit
I’m thinking that on the trip down the AA earlier this afternoon, our guys were pretty confident that we would be coming home with a win over Mason County, who had put only three games in the win column this season, while putting the memories of our CovCath experience behind us, and starting a new winning streak. However, it was not to be as again we were plagued with pitching and defensive woes – 4 Errors and 6 hit batters resulted in flashbacks of our experiences of 24 hours ago. Isaac Amin, who left the game early during his last start, again only gave us 2 innings, with the Royals scoring 3 earned runs on 3 hits, while walking 3 Mason County batters. Again, our relief corps was unable to stop the bleeding as the Royals piled on for 9 more runs over the next 2 1/3 innings, resulting in a run-rule loss, our second in 24 hours, and third of the season. Making matters worse, the Mason Cunty starter, Senior Brady Mefford, had brought his A-Game, limiting our Mustangs to 2 runs on 4 hits, with no Mustang collecting multiple hits, nor an extra-base hit. Luke Neltner did collect 2 RBIs in the second inning. Mefford went the distance to get the win. Royals Luke Butler and Marquis Bluford had big nights, going 2/2 and 3/4 respectively. Mefford helped his own cause with a RBI double.
The Mustangs get a much-needed practice day tomorrow, before hosting the Bourbon County Colonels on Friday night, when we will honor the 1966 Baseball Mustangs prior to the varsity game. Brian and Andy will broadcast both the varsity and the JV games Friday night. Air time is 4:40pm and 7:10pm.
Five Errors, Three Hit Batters, and Eight Walks All Benefit CovCath in 12-3 Mustangs Loss - Mustangs Generate 3 Runs-3 Hits, (Brady Rowe Has Two of Them) CovCath 12 Runs Plus 10 Hits
In what was a tough game to watch, with our Mustangs struggling so badly. CovCath benefitted from five fielding errors, three hit batters by our pitchers, and eight walks in improving to 8-4 with a 12-3 win Tuesday evening in Alexandria. The Colonels jumped on Brossart Starter, Luke Neltner, for 6 runs (3 Earned) on 4 hits in three innings of work, as CovCath starter Will McEvoy limited us to a single base hit in three innings. We did chase him in the fourth, when he was lifted after getting a strike out, we victimized him for two walks, a hit batter, a single, and a double, getting back 3 runs that our relievers had allowed in the top of the fourth inning, making it a 9-3 game, but that was as close as we would come in this one. Sophomore Brady Rowe was our only bright spot at the plate, going 2 for 3 with a double, and a run scored. Ben Doyle had our other hit scoring a run and knocking one home. On the CovCath side of the ledger, Jace Smith was 3 for 3, and Jack Nolan 3 for 4, as sixteen different Colonels had a turn at bat.

The 1966 Baseball Team made history as the first team in Brossart athletics to capture a district championship, edging out Highlands in a thrilling 4-3 victory. Their legacy didn’t stop there—they were later honored as a Team of Distinction in the inaugural Brossart Sports Hall of Fame Class of 2012.
We’ll be recognizing this trailblazing squad in a special pregame ceremony, with a team photo displayed featuring every player and coach from that historic roster. We’re expecting around 10 members of the team to be in attendance, making it an unforgettable moment to connect past and present.
Be sure to be in your seats early as we honor these Mustangs approximately 15 minutes before first pitch, because none of this started without them.
